The “expert” is the Holy Spirit who inspired scripture. In Romans it is clear what God says about making “images” of Him.

Romans 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

It also tells us what the consequences of doing so will be.

Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts,

You can either believe what scripture says or what Rome says. The choice is yours.

Still dodging.

The simple question is are those two paintings idols in your judgement.

The question before that was: Do you even know what an idol is?

Notice these are question only you can answer. Not a request for copy and paste, but your knowledge and judgement. The same that you use to declare others worship idols.

If you cannot be given examples and say whether they are idols or not and why, there is no reason for anyone to put any credence in your judgement of idols or idol worship.

From your dodging, it is obvious now that you don’t even know what an idol is.
